Please please keep making these videos. I’ve just pulled my Pinz out of storage after 10 years.. it was my daily driver for a while when I was a teenager. I’m just starting to go through it a bit at a time, and get it back to roadworthy. Your videos are immensely helpful.
Thank you Clive. I don't intent to stop anytime soon! Right now it is peacefully sleeping under a tarp to keep moisture out. I can't wait to get it out again!
Thank you for your interest! It is here to stay, and there is still a ton of work to do to it. I will go off road this weekend, so look out for a video about that! Thanks again!
Nice to see you old pal, that's a fine machine your have. It was great to watch the change over and process. Best part had to be in the workshop, you were saying "ah yes here it's comes, I can feel it, can you see it" I laughed so hard because it reminded me of (Uri Geller) bending spoons 🤣 Fantastic work it'll hopefully last a few more years now without locking up. Stay safe brother and don't be a stranger to the airwaves 👍
Brake lines are quite often seized. The technique I have demonstrated takes car of 99% of such cases. Only seldom will you have to sever the line and make a new one. Glad this helps! And I hope you are well. It has been a while.
@@gmcevoy Yeah I'm ok , i had to get rid of my old rusty mx-5 i tried to get it back on the road but it needed to much work but i now have a new one same as the one i had before even the same colour but this one is rust free only done 40k miles its a 2004 model. i joined the owners club and have gone out on some nice drive outs and showing the car at classic car shows it's been fun
Спасибо, Вам! Отличное видео, тщательная проработка деталей. Продолжайте снимать видео про Pinzgauer, мне очень интересно.👍 Уникальная конструкция шасси и трансмиссии этого автомобиля, с большими возможностями на бездорожье.👍 Я подписан на Ваш канал.🤝🤗
Thanks for the video! I’ll do mine soon now :) RE the portal hub leak, have you nipped up the Alan bolts around the seal? I did that and the bolts around the portal axle and it’s good for a temporary fix. …I got the Pinzssi. Nice and smooth sounding now. I did have one problem. The blade connector that connects to the petrol solenoids was not tight enough and the ignition would turn off for a fraction of a second and make a big backfire.
Hi Steve! I have not yet addressed that portal leak issue. I hope to be able to take care of it this Winter. It comes from the portal output shaft seal, so nothing else than replacing it will solve the problem. This involves taking the whole portal apart down to basic components. It's a big job to undertake... I had the same issue with Pinz SSi blade connector! I crimped it with some pliers so it would stay on. Furthermore, I just had to replace the board with both coils because it was only firing on three cylinders. I had Rick, who makes the Pinz SSi, tell me that this issue had never happened before. I believe some connection within the board must have gone wrong, probably because the whole thing got under water. Did you see that part of my previous video? Not my best moment, admittedly. Since then I relocated the ignition module behind the drivers seat, as I deleted the petrol-powered cabin heater. I still have it mind you, I just removed it from the vehicle. Now the ignition module is safe from water ingress. I will be going off-road this weekend with it, I hope it will behave! Speak soon I hope. Take care Steve!
Hi Geoff, thanks for the excellent & useful content! Nice to see you're able to get back to the Pinzgauer! Did I miss something though? I thought in your last Pinz video you has a portal seal leak on the front passenger wheel assembly into/near the brake cylinder? Hopefully that wasn't a problem. Your content has been very helpful in getting my 76 710k in shape. I've upgraded to the SSI ignition. Also not sure if you had the issue (hope not) of fuel tank seal leaks. Well I did and had to remove the tank & replace the crumbled cork gaskets. All good now. I'm just getting into the brakes. I was pulling to the left with hard breaking. The front drivers brake adjustment was very tight for some reason. Loosened it and much better now. I do know however I need to pull all the drums & start rebuilding as needed. So good to have your information for real world guidance. I have so much to learn with this vehicle. Great having your content & the help of other owners & maintenance experts on this vehicle. So far so good. Truly enjoying the Pinzgauer. Great, well engineered vehicle! Thanks so much. Please keep em coming! ~Bob V
Hi Bob! Nice to hear from you! Thank you for your kind words. I am really glad that you find my content useful. The front passenger portal leak has not yet been addressed, I am hoping to find a place for it indoors this Winter, where I can work on it comfortably. It is a big piece of work that. I have not had fuel tank leaks yet. I am not looking forward to that, but I will have to do something about the fuel gauge not working. It is a hindrance of sorts. I will be taking the Pinz out wheeling for the weekend, I hope I won't damage anything! I will try to make a video about that. :-) Speak soon I hope, and keep enjoying your Pinz! They are indeed engineering marvels which deserve to be enjoyed now that they have retired from their service.
@@gmcevoy HI Geoff, so glad you're back in business with getting the Pinz out on the trail again! If you don't have fuel leaks that's great! Also you probably already know but you can get to your fuel sensor through a bolted plate in the cabin on the passenger side. It would be under the radio table. Easy access to the tube & wire contacts. Let me know if you need a contact for a new/used fuel sensor tube. If that's the issue. Best Always & enjoy the trailride!!! Looking forward to the video!!!
@@bobv7753 Thank you for the heads up, Bob. The thing is, the previous owner built a custom drawer/shelf system bolted over the access plate you mention. I would have to take it all out just to access it, and since I intend to rebuild something from scratch, it is going to have to wait until I get to that. First of all, I need it to be reliable and safe to drive, then I will likely tackle body work, electrics, a paint job if I can afford it, and certainly redesign the interior to make it comfy and versatile. I will post all about this along the way of course, but it will all be distilled over a couple of years surely. So thank you for your enthusiastic following, I highly appreciate it! Speak soon!

Thank you! It is a huge improvement, to say the least. Still tons of work to do, but it's getting there. Speak soon!
Great tutorial some useful tips in there that i will use on my brakes Thanks

@@Mr_Dia-Tribe I know that feeling. But it is great that you have managed to lay hands on a nice one, and that you are enjoying it!
